Smotrich seeks Netanyahu's OK for Gaza settlements
The extremist Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich requested Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to approve the establishment of three new settlements along the northern border of the Gaza Strip, aiming to re-establish the settlements evacuated in 2005. He indicated his intention to build settlements on the northern border of Gaza, claiming that Israel would return to having four settlements in northern the West Bank, surpassing the period during which unilateral evacuations took place. It is worth noting that Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, evacuating all its settlements there, as well as four settlements in northern the West Bank. Currently, the West Bank is home to approximately 750,000 settlers across 156 settlements and 360 outposts. Smotrich asserts that the current settlement policy aims to strengthen Israeli control and displace Palestinians, with settlement expansion continuing in the occupied areas.
